Here's What I Think:

I have to start with a huge disclaimer - I AM A HAPPILY MARRIED WOMAN WITH NO NEED TO DATE!! I thought this would be an interesting read and might help me out when my friends that do still date come to me for advice. And I was right. Each themed chapter - Like Dates from Hell and Lying - includes real life anecdotes from the dating world accompanied by the Hultin Ladies' tips and advice on how to avoid and/or overcome such travesties. It is a very light hearted look at real-life situations. The stories range from funny to sad to particularly frightening. If you like to people watch, you would like this book. And I think that if you are looking for some help in the dating world, online or not, you would benefit from this book.

Disclaimer: Although I did receive a copy of this title for review, I was in no other way compensated to write this review. This is my honest opinion of this title.
